Posted: Oct 06 2007 Post subject: Craigslist score!! |
|
|
I just have to brag about my latest score on Craigslist. I thought my almost new WSM for $100 was tough to beat but this score is is by far my best score. Recently there was a post on Craigslist for a brand new, still in the box, Weber Blue OTG for $50. I already have 2 kettles so I was considering checking it out but wasn't in any great need of another kettle. Well, I checked the post to see if the person had sold it and I noticed the price was down to $25. Now there was no way I could pass up a brand new OTG still in the box for $25.00! I made the phone call and got right over there to claim that baby as mine. Come to find out the person had won it in a drinking contest and was very disappointed that it wasn't a gas grill. I was amusingly surprised when I opened the box and realised that it was a promotional grill with a Keystone Light logo on the top and flames around the kettle. Not only is it a brand new kettle but it it a very different to say the least.
Life is good!!

Great deal to say the least...you could always put your 'seasoned' grill on Craigs list for $50 and probably sell it with no problem...  |

Considering you already have a couple others......
I might not rush to put fire in that one. It's quite possibly a lot more valuable a few years down the road. I'd put it back in the box and store away in the attic.
Wondering what it's worth on E-bay ten years from now....

I have been searching craigslist for months and all I find in my area is old beat up crap.
Congrats to you!!! It will only become valuable when keystone makes a good beer and then goes out of business. Kinda like a dead painters painting is more valuable. _________________ The American Atomic Buffalo Turd Society of America
